Description


  • Round trip transportation from your Grand Cayman cruise ship terminal!
  • English speaking certified guide!
  • 2 great sites to visit and snorkel on this Grand Cayman Snorkeling Cruise Excursion!
  • Snorkel set includes varied sized fins, sanitized snorkel, silicone mask, and vest!
  • Complimentary bottled water!
  • See the world-famous Stingray City and captain's choice coral reef snorkeling!

See the famous Stingray City, then snorkel at one of Cayman's best sites - the captain makes the choice for the day on this Grand Cayman Stingray City Shore Excursion!

The friendly snorkeling staff will be waiting for you just across from your cruise ship's terminal. Your transportation will take you for a short drive to the dock where your snorkel excursion boat will be waiting. Get ready for a fun time in Grand Cayman!

Your first snorkel stop will be the world-famous Stingray City Sandbar; you can get in and the water is waist-deep. The experienced guides will instruct you on how to touch and hold the sting rays. You may have the opportunity to kiss or even possibly feed these gentle, docile rays. You have the option to stay on the boat and just watch if you wish. The rays pose no harm to the guests who visit and are very used to interacting with humans.

After your encounter with the friendly stingrays, the captain will take you a great site for a great snorkeling experience. He will make the determination, according to the daily conditions. The guide will pass out the snorkel gear, demonstrate how to use it and then lead you into the water to explore. Cayman boasts some of the best snorkeling around, so regardless of the sites chosen, you will be treated to a colorful display of marine life. Your snorkeling time is approximately 45 minutes.

Bottled water will be served onboard. The Grand Cayman snorkel shore excursion captain will take the boat back to the pier afterward where the transportation will drop you back off at your Grand Cayman cruise ship pier.

Note: There is a variety of boats used ranging from 32' to 60'.

Loved it, experienced of a lifetime with the stingrays. My mom was skeptical about getting in the water but with the ease from or guide she did it. The staff was wonderful took good care of us and everyone had plenty of time with the stingrays. The snorkeling was excellent plenty of marine life and Ray's. The guides made us feel safe and gave one on one with the strugglers. So amazing we purchased our pics.

The staff were very helpful and put us at ease with the stingrays. Fantastic experience highly recommend. The snorkelling was a little underwhelming having snorkeled on Great Barrier Reef & South Pacific but well worth swimming with the stingrays. The photos taken were fantastic and worth the purchase. Our USB didn’t work and we contacted them as per their instructions and they promptly emailed the photos to us . Would highly recommend this tour .

(Tour Operators) boat to Stingray City and 2 snorkeling spots was the best part of our visit. The staff was amazing, welcoming, funny and acknowledgeable. The spots we snorkeled couldn’t have been any more perfect and Stingray Cory was more that I ever imagined. We will rebook with them again.

We absolutely loved this excursion and would recommend it to all for the experience. The stingrays were so docile and fun to hold and swim with. I would definitely do this excursion again. The snorkeling was also amazing. The captain took us to 2 beautiful spots for snorkeling. I had never snorkeled before and they were very understanding and explained the process thoroughly. It was like I had done it many times before this. This was by far one of our most favorite excursions and we absolutely loved the Grand Caymans.

We went on this excursion Aug 2018. Very much enjoyed it. We were on the Captain Jimmy. The meeting location was very easy to locate. Our crew were very nice and allowed the kids to take turns steering the boat on our way out. It was about 20-25 minutes to Stingray City. I was very nervous as its not easy to stand still and was afraid I would accidentally step on a ray. The crew were so comfortable here it made it hard to be nervous long. They clearly knew what they were doing. The photographer took some good pictures of us that we purchased on USB for $50.00. Our snorkel stop was Coral Gardens which was literally 5 minutes away from SRC. It was beautiful and full of fish, we took many pictures of all the colorful fish. We had a great day, in fact my 9 year old said it was the best day of her life!

This is a first class operation. Our ship had to tender on the opposite side of the island because of weather and they were there waiting to pick us up. They take you on a 15 min. boat ride to the sand bar where you get out in waist deep water and really interact with the stingrays which is awesome. They are very gentle and the captain does an excellent job getting everyone involved. After that, they take you about 1/4 mile to snorkel for about 30 mins.

We were unsure of using an outside vendor, we were on a cruise. ship and had only used their vendors before. This excursion was GREAT. Was much better than we had expected. Stingray city was amazing. The crew made sure that we knew what to do when we got in the water. They made sure that everyone was comfortable and it was great. The snorkeling afterwards was a good experience also. I would recommend this tour to everyone.

If you have ever wanted to experience stingrays up close and in person, this is the excursion for you. Can't say anything negative about what we experienced with this trip. From the booking to the guides, this was hassle free. Speaking of the guides, they are amazing, patient and helps everyone. If you have never swam with the stingrays, this is a must.

Was a good day, short ride to the boat then out to the sand bar, lots of other people and boats but was not crowded and are PLENTY of stingray. Guides helped us interact, hold and KISS the stingray. Once they were sure we were all satisfied with our stingray interaction we went a little ways away to the snorkeling which was also a good time. Plenty to see under the sea:-)

This was exactly as described. You will meet up the street a couple blocks from the pier and take a mini-bus for a little ride to a boat. From there you will take the boat for 20 mins to the sandbar area with the stingrays. After that you will go snorkeling nearby the stingrays. The boat crew was very polite and made everyone comfortable handling and being around the stingrays. As fun as that was, the snorkeling was amazing! The water is so clear and the views seemed unreal. Well worth it.

“ Whenever possible I always choose Shore Excursioneer. Their excursions are always "top notch" and so very easy to book. I very rarely book through the ship anymore, mainly because the same excursion is probably more expensive or they don't offer an excursion that I'm interested in. Case in point on our last trip to Cozumel on the Valor we booked our excursion to Mr. Sanchos Beach Club through Shoreexcursioneer.com since Carnival didn't even offer it. ”
